oldwineinnewpot: Ramblings & Musings
http://oldwineinnewpot.blogspot.com/2012/12/ramblings-musings.html
Tuesday, December 11, 2012. A sustained period of incessant introspection impeding normal progress and rendering impasse seems to be an addendum to graduate school experience. To see the world and travelling to a place near Big Apple to pursue the journey seemed an interesting prospect. Decision making was difficult. Had to go through a roller coaster that was steeper than previous one! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile. Kaushik Ram (Namma Malai).

Saturday, May 8, 2010. Bus Ride, iPod. And their conversation was along the lines of some "pullayaaru sadurthi" festivities. They caught my attention when one of the mentioned about iPod and iPhone. And the kids started talking about "Thottu. Thottu" (the touch feature) phone pesalaam. I was dumb-struck and think Jobs has got it right. He has made the entire market to go after the touch feature. PS: Wanted to check whether they mention about flash also. Unfortunately, they did not. :( :(. Bus Ride, iPod.

Wednesday, February 23, 2011. Lately, I keep listening to the bgm song in Ravanan during the fight between Veera and Dev's forces. The lines are from the poem Kalingathu Bharani (I read it in my tenth standard Tamil textbook). The versatility of the poem combined with ARR's music enchanted me, indeed. Kalingathu Bharani glorifies the heroics of the warriors and the battling forces in the warfield. Check out the song in this link. The lyrics are as follows: (It features in Por Paadiyadu Padalam).

oldwineinnewpot: November 2009
http://oldwineinnewpot.blogspot.com/2009_11_01_archive.html
Saturday, November 28, 2009. If u had accidentally visited this link then pl do click here. Its been a long time, since i had posted something in this blog roll. I just have a huge list of questions unanswered. Like, how to pass time on weekends? Except those when i go to IISc or home). What do ppl imply when they preach "have a life"? Is not "having a life" a matter of perspective? I was always wondering about this when people pass such a comment. Or the discussion page. Hope they go a long way :) .

oldwineinnewpot: April 2010
http://oldwineinnewpot.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
Monday, April 19, 2010. A few ads get on to my nerves. Especially, when they stoop below a level. For example, LG's lets zap ad. Huh, selling someone's stuff becomes a "Wonderful Moment in Life". Http:/ www.youtube.com/watch? I will definitely like to meet the creative brain behind this ad. The icing on the cake is Dhoni's micromax ad. "Omg, this is my n-th mobile. Stop flicking it. Boo-hoo hoo hoo. booo hoooooooo". Perhaps the ad directors need to check this out. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Thursday, January 21, 2010. Did i screw up anything big time? Rescue efforts came in from all quarters. Finally, the drought ended with welcome showers. Enduring such a period toughened me mentally. Although i was never given straight answers for my questions. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile. Kaushik Ram (Namma Malai).

Tuesday, May 24, 2011. Had been listening to this in a loop since yesterday night :). Copied the lyrics from a site filled with ads:. Chorus - Pharrell Williams]. I'm having a bad bad day. Its about time that I get my way. Steam rolling whatever i see, huh. I’m having a bad bad day. If you take it personal thats ok,. Watch this is so fun to see, huh. Why ask why better yet why not. Why are you marking 'X' on that spot. Why use a blow torch isn’t that hot? Why use a chainsaw is that all you got.

Monday, May 26, 2008. Enna Koduma Sir, idhu! Translator's Note: Title - Huh. I was just getting acquainted with people in our new apartment (yeah, i just moved in, yet again! I was talking to a lady, residing in the house just above ours. As usual, i was introducing myself "am doing my final year, compsci in NI. blah". She suddenly interrupted me. Did u try for iit? I replied "Yeah, I did". And that lady replied with pride brimming in her tone, "Even my son is attending AIMS classes". Monday, May 19, 2008.
